Abstract

Introduction: despite the celebrated development, licensure and distribution of effective COVID-19 vaccines, the number of recently reported cases and deaths continued to rise globally up to the Northern Hemisphere summer of 2021. Objective: to show the countries with the highest percentage of absolute change of people vaccinated against COVID-19 between December 13 2020 and January 6 2022.  Methodology: a cross-sectional study was conducted for this research, based on the Our World in Data web page COVID-19 vaccination data. Results: it was determined that the countries with the highest percentage of absolute change of vaccinated people were: Gibraltar (117.73), Portugal (89.65), United Arab Emirates (88.97), Brunei (87.27), Singapore (87), and Chile (86.35). Conclusion: vaccine delivery systems and infrastructure require to be established to ensure COVID-19 vaccines access to priority target groups around the world.
